"This is one of the best restaurants in the Santa Fe area, but due to it being outside of the city it tends to be very quiet. The food is excellent as are the drinks."

"The service was horrible. Once seated it took then 15 minutes to bring water and ten more to get our order and the menu(Easter Brunch $$$75.00 per person) was never explained, desert was not written down on the menu so I had to ask.
Every time I wanted water (3 times) I had to ask for it. I had to asked for the table to cleared before the dessert.
The chef came out several times but only to "special tables" went by our table and not even an acknowledgment to us. It was not a lack of staff,but they where walking around with no purpose and in the back talking to each other not paying attention to the tables.
I have been here many, many times and my brother has stayed in the hotel but not sure if I'm returning. I left felling I trow away $

"This is not a typical, stuffy, haute cuisine restaurant. From the moment we entered the dining room, we were overcome with a feeling of relaxation. The hostess, wait staff, and Chef Cooper, made our dining experience so comfortable, and memorable. Unpretentious cooking, using fresh, local, ingredients make Terra unique, and incredible. We left our menus, and let the chef create our meal.. Most memorable was the "potato course" of our tasting menu; lightly browned potato chips, rolled into a canoli shape, and filled with potato ice cream. Chef Cooper is a creative genius! Not to be missed if you visit Santa Fe, or even if you are remotely nearby."

"My 2013 Restaurant Week Winner!!! Hands-down, no competition came close - not Geronimo, Coyote Cafe, or any of those former old standbys. Terra was a perfect experience. I don't know what else to say but my 2/26 meal was the very best I've ever had outside of NYC or the Napa Valley area. From the warm, personal greeting, to the smooth waitstaff, and throughout this gorgeous space with a breathtaking view comes a true chef. Panzanella salad w/a perfectly cooked egg, most divine scallops (which have me now believing I should have been eating more scallops in the right place all along), to an Arctic char with a PERFECTLY cooked skin, etc etc. Perfection from the minute I set my foot in the double doors. Locals, make THIS your new special go to"

"Service was excellent overall, but slow due to the fact that a 'private party' was being held in the kitchen - ? Decor a bit tacky since the switch to Four Seasons. Food not as good as before the change. No longer an exclusive-type crowd, if that matters to you.
Would I recommend? A strong 'maybe'.

"The food was excellent. The service was very attentive. The setting is lovely with a nice sunset view through the large windows. Dining room is very open an airy. With very little sound-absorbing surface, the dining room was quite noisy even though it was only half full. The background music was not to our taste, but it wasn' terribly loud."

"Went during Restaurant Week and ordered from pre fixe menu. Started with drinks in their bar watching the sun set over the Jemez (amazing views). Dinner was perfection from the appetizers through to dessert. Our waiter, Adam, was exceptional. The restaurant manager, Katherine, was visible and interacting as well. As you would expect from a Four Seasons establishment, the attention to detail was exceptional (as it should be for the price -- but you get your money's worth). Even if we had not done the pre frix (three courses for $40/pp), it still would have been worth the money. Can't wait to go back. (NOTE: The bar has a wonderful bar menu should you want to experience the resort for less $$$.)"

"Terra, before becoming a Four Seasons property, had a menu that seemed a little bit "corporate." Not so now, it's one of three AAA 4-diamond restaurants in Santa Fe. We had our Valentine's Day dinner there (we never do that on 2/14) and everything was top-notch. Very few customers since it was 2/13, and hence very quiet. I've been there with a moderately filled room and the noise still allowed for quiet conversation.
In warmer weather an outdoor patio off the bar offers great sunset views.
On this visit I confirmed personally that the wine bottles stored around the fireplace are all empties, for show and to insulate the filled bottles from the heat."

"After discussing starters and entre's with my captain I told him I would eat whatever he brought. My stater was a medley of three of the starters with a samll amount of each. It was excellent! The bread basket is always excellent! The crab stuffed relleno was very good! The is restaurant is worth the relaxing drive north from the Plaza up Bishop's Lodge Road."
